Answer 1

The programme was called off. They postponed their visit.

Answer 2

Answer:

The given sentence has been splitted as "The programme was called off" and "They postponed their visit".

Explanation:

• A compound or complex sentence has independent and dependent clauses that are joined by coordinating or subordinate conjunctions.
• These sentences can be split by removing the conjunctions and replacing them with a period to form two simple sentences.
• The subordinating conjunction used in the given sentence is ‘as’.
• In such cases, the sequence or order of the actions performed in the joint sentence must be maintained.
• The verbs and nouns must also be matched in each of the split sentences as in the joint sentence.
